The correct answer is: C. Agriculture worship
Odhdwas and Doobri are two festivals celebrated in the Indian state of Gujarat. They are related to agriculture and are celebrated to mark the beginning of the sowing season. The festivals are also associated with the worship of the goddess of agriculture, Annapurna.
Odhdwas is celebrated on the first day of the month of Chaitra (March-April), while Doobri is celebrated on the first day of the month of Shravan (July-August). On both days, farmers perform special pujas (prayers) to Annapurna and seek her blessings for a bountiful harvest. They also offer prayers to other gods and goddesses associated with agriculture, such as Vishnu, Shiva, and Lakshmi.
In addition to prayers, Odhdwas and Doobri are also celebrated with feasting, dancing, and singing. People wear new clothes and visit each other’s homes. The festivals are a time for family and friends to come together and celebrate the start of the new agricultural season.
Here is a brief explanation of each option:
- Cow worship: Cows are considered sacred in Hinduism and are often worshipped. However, Odhdwas and Doobri are not festivals related to cow worship.
- Shiva worship: Shiva is one of the most important gods in Hinduism. He is often worshipped by Hindus, but Odhdwas and Doobri are not festivals related to Shiva worship.
- None of these: Odhdwas and Doobri are festivals related to agriculture, not cow worship, Shiva worship, or any other religion.
